“The map printing module is not very intuitive, you have to go through too many screens to create a map that may not actually be formatted in after it is printed vs. what was shown on the preview, and the scale of the map is not represented numerically (i.e. 85%).“

May 24, 2018

5.0

Efficient route and Territory planning.

Pros

Easy territory maps for my entire sales team. Including their accounts and ways to navigate to them efficiently.

You have to be somewhat profecient with computers to manipulate the system to get what you want sometimes.

### "Excellent Customer Service"

September 25, 2025

5.0

What I appreciate most about MapsBusinessOnline is their outstanding customer service. My company has been using this program for years, and we’ve had the same representative, \[sensitive content hidden\], from the very beginning. \[sensitive content hidden\] has been exceptional. He truly defines what great customer service should be. His reliability, quick response time, and consistent support make all the difference. Whether it’s troubleshooting a technical issue, adding an additional user, or answering a simple question, \[sensitive content hidden\] is always there to help. Beyond the excellent service, the platform itself delivers tremendous value.

Pros

It has been instrumental in producing major reports and managing critical data, and it’s used daily by multiple members of our team. It is user friendly.

Cons

I do not have anything that I like least about MapsBusinessOnline. My company has been using this program for years and it has done everything we need it to do.

### "Good product that is losing usefulness"

August 22, 2023

3.0

It was a good initial experience - learning curve was manageable and price was good - but it features have been decreasing as price increases, and we're just told that they believe they're still a good price with no plan to address the deficiets.

Pros

MapBusinessOnline makes it easy to import and export zip code data for territory mapping.

Cons

Viewer experience is confusing - its made to look like a free trial that will have to be paid. Map organization is severely lacking - there is no way to create folders, and no way to see all maps (ones you created and ones those on your team created) all in one place. There is no way to delete old maps created by people no longer with the company so we have clutter and mess making it very difficult to find the map we need. Price continues to go up as features we used (Salesforce Integration) are discontinued. Value is decreasing. We used to get quarterly zip code updates but they are much less frequent now, to the point we may need to pay for those from another service. There is no way to speak to someone in support - they respond to emails only which makes resolving issues very time consuming and inefficient.

Sherri, Thank you for your review. We do provide phone support, chat support, in addition to email spport. I will forward your concerns listed here to the development team.

### "Powerful mapping tool drives agility"

November 25, 2025

5.0

We have been using the product for over 6 years at Polaris Transport and highly recommend it. From driving sales to fleet routing... it has been powerful tool in our planning! Facts guide decisions and help our customers support their growth!

Pros

MapbusinessOnline is outstanding agile and information tool. Plotting all kinds of data while overlaying on all the map type options quickly allows you to gain insight and gain competitive advantages. The value to price ratio is second to none.

Cons

The product has a couple of quirks... you have to use it to really see how it works ... but this is mostly intuitive! The data limits can max out quickly if you don't scrub out older files.

### "Excellent Mapping Software for Market Planning"

September 5, 2025

5.0

I love the software. I can share my maps, either with a link or by exporting an image, I can export relevant data into excel for further data analysis, and the customer service is top notch!

Pros

I like that the software is easy to use and provides a large set of demographics and business listings I can visualize and easily manipulate for my needs. And the price point is truly phenomenal.

Cons

There isn't anything I have wanted the software to do that Customer Service has not been able to show me how to do. After 9 months of using the software, I dont have a con yet.

Determining addressable market size in each state and county.

Pros

Once you learn the software, it's really quite easy to work in. When I've had issues, the customer support I've received has been unbelievably strong.

Cons

Printing function could use some upgrading. Prints map view of individual state very small, and no way to add any data sets to the view.

Shane, Thank you for your review. I'm not sure I understand your statement on State Views. Be sure to run this by Jason if you haven't. I know for large states like Texas showing all counties can be a challenge for online mapping. I want to make sure you are aware of how to append labeling with your data. Geoff Ives

### "Great basic mapping software. Easy to import or export data."

May 24, 2018

4.0

Pros

The program was very easy to learn. When I first started it only took me about five minutes to learn the basics of exporting addresses and exporting territories.

Cons

While the basic tasks were easy to learn, I had trouble with the more complicated tasks even with the online instructions.

### "Map Business Online makes it easy for our team to visualize our lead and lag goals."

May 25, 2018

4.0

It helped me complete a review quickly

Pros

Ease of use - creating a map takes just minutes. We also share maps within our team, but having the ability to share a map with a non-license holder is a nice perk!

Cons

I wish that it would allow for more than 1K territories, but we've found a workaround that meets our needs.

### "Incredible value! "

February 13, 2018

5.0

viewing customer geography,,,,mapping leads.

Pros

Just seems to always have a way of doing what you want. From mapping to directing sales teams in the field with guidance, this tool provides fundamental functionality. The data exporting was a added utility that is used heavily to support analytics.

Cons

Hard to say....a little attention must be paid to layers and the overlay of them. Would be nice if there was an intermediate subscription level to supply a few more functions to sales reps with whom maps are shared.

### "Use Map Business Online to solve your territory management problems"

April 3, 2019

4.0

Pros

It helps to easily identify the big dealers which helps to add in sales volume to your map. It is very easy to use and it is user friendly too. It has lots of features which a user can utilize to maximize their business growth.

Cons

The tutorials to learn the software were pretty hard to understand rather than that everything was good.

### "MBO allows quick visual analysis and long term planning & control tools."

September 14, 2023

5.0

My use of MBO has grown, from a zip code map, then demographic data source, to now - a critical tool for Sales, Operations, and Capacity Management. I still used the basic zip mapping to group all zip codes within a time or distance of a selected site. But now I also use the maps to visually select service point with great accuracy, and to easily identify outliers and missed points of opportunity.

Pros

ALL of my opportunity analysis start with a volume heatmap layered onto a coverage territory. My territories are saved in a template, that is linked to our coverage planning databases (in a different system). The opportunity volume easily can be copy & pasted into MBO. The entire process takes just a minute, and I have a great looking visual analysis for the sales team to work with & share.

Cons

Territory management: I wish that the multiple territory groups could be held on the same map, similar to Datasets, even if only 1 could be displayed at a time. It would also be a plus if territories updates could be linked to source data that is updatable, like the datasets.

### "MBO is a great tool to map business territory in a cloud-based system."

May 24, 2018

4.0

Pros

The software gives you the ability to calculate the distance between lists of addresses and GPS coordinates allowing us to verify our distance-based franchise territories. It provides a quick visual way to quickly review all our locations across the US. It also gives you the ability to save specific addresses on the map and place shapes in order to mark territories.

Cons

The software feels dated in terms of look and user functionality. Some features could be improved, locking shapes would be a giant improvement as mistakes can be made, by accidentally moving shapes while trying to move around the map view. The cloud-based functionality is nice, but because the software uses each computers individual cached memory to store the map you have to make sure to open a new copy of the master map each time to avoid mistakes when working in a team environment. One small mistake in order of operations can result in significant error in the master map. We have actually purchased a second account as a workaround, though an approval system included in the software would be much better.

Chris, Thank you for your review. Regarding map editing across a shared environment. You should be using a Map Business Online Team subscription to achieve team editing.Team editing provides a Map Lock feature to prevent overwriting. From what we can see, you are using the full-year subscription only, which does not support multiple users logging into the subscription.

### "Map your Biz!"

December 3, 2019

5.0

Such a smooth tool & allows customization to make it more useful to your business needs

Pros

I have used this software for my personal drone business mapping my clients around the state of FL, but we also started using at my day job to map our factories across the globe. This allows us to keep track of factories and map our spend with each - this allows us to better pick new factories when it comes to consolidating freight with eachother

Cons

The price @ $300 is well worth the spend - but considering it is basically a Google Maps add on tool - you would think Google would try something like this & make it free (w/ small ads)

Review Source

Response from SpatialTEQ

December 6, 2019

Grafton, Thank you for your review and for using Map Business Online for drone work. To be clear - Map Business Online is NOT a Google Add-on tool. Google did the world a service by providing advanced mapping for free for so long. They also put people in the industry out of work, and then took those capabilities away because those services do, in fact, cost a lot of money to support. Google isn't in the business of free. Companies pay Google a lot of $ for marketing, geocoding, .mapping, site reviews, and many other services.

### "Exactly what I needed to create multiple layers of alignment in the US and Canada! Great Product!"

November 17, 2017

5.0

Allowed me to complete my territory alignment project in just one weeks time.

Pros

\*The customer service was amazing! Cusotmer rep. was such a great support and super responsive. He never declined a screen sharing session and answered every email within a half hour. He was always happy to help me get unstuck. It was really only small details I needed him for because the program was very easy to use and the YouTube videos and help website covered most any question that came up. \*Now that I have it down, I see many more business uses for us. \*The price was very good for the product capabilities and the fact that the support was so good made the value amazing. Most companies would invoice you for the consulting or training.

Cons

\*I wish it included Mexico. \*It would be nice to be able to combine both the zip code and county feature when making territories, instead of being committed to one or the other. There were times combining would have made the work faster. \*Better options for hiding everything when I only want to print part of the map. Too many filters required in addition to hiding map layers and it just wasn't as clean as I wanted.

Thank you for reviewing Map Business Online. Additional countries are under consideration - Mexico being one. ZIP codes and Counties present some challenges when compiled together to construct a territory. One problem is that ZIP's often overlap several counties. We'll continue to review it. We'll also continue to consider new ways to highlight sections of the map. Perhaps a view wizard to select and de-select layers all at once?

### "Low cost - easy to learn and share - brings CRM data "alive" "

May 31, 2015

5.0

I tested 10 other sales mapping options before I found, and fell in love with, MBO. Our B-to-B telemarketing sales staff now has access to the geographic and demographic features of over 600,000 small business leads that I plotted across 50 separate state maps. (If the geocoding limit per map could be increased to 750,000 - hint, hint - I'd only need one map!) I added a Goggle street view link to the callout box and tons of business statistics to the data window so the sales staff can easily research their leads, and really 'see' who they're talking to. Also, businesses in our existing customers' territories are blocked out, making it clear who NOT to call. It's so easy to share all 50 maps with both our on-site and off-site telemarketing staff. I simply created a free WIX website containing 50 state links, and gave the name of that website to our salespeople (for security, the website is not published on the web). The changes I make to the maps almost daily are automatically updated at the WIX link. And all this functionality for the single-user MBO price!!! Overall, MBO is a brilliant, extremely intuitive, highly functional, and very affordable tool that gives our sales staff insight into who and where the best prospects are. It's helped our company tremendously in visualizing and achieving its potential. My only complaint is that navigation around the map (zooming and dragging) is a little jerky and awkward. Even when I use the helpful preset zoom stops, it takes a while to recenter the map at a new location and/or zoom level. I'd also like to see automatic dialing software integrated into the maps. If MBO could do that, it would make a complete package for B-to-B telemarketing companies.

November 14, 2018

5.0

Perfect for the Sales Blitz packages that we create.

Pros

This software is efficient and reliable when putting maps together. It optimizes routes so that sales people can cover large areas in a more timely manner. I like the amount of information you can include in the points of interest as well.

Cons

It can be confusing when you first start learning it. There is a learning curve that can get frustrating.

It is a great product at a fair price. It is more powerful and easier to use than MapPoint.

December 14, 2016

5.0

We recently switched to Map Business Online at our company. Not only is MBO returning us better results than our old software, but it came with a 3500% decrease in yearly licensing fees! We couldn't be happier with the switch.

Pros

The ease of use. I was able to just open up the program and go, it's very user-friendly. I did get stuck with one feature and reached out to customer service for help. I didn't really expect to get anything in return, but they emailed me back within the hour, and I was only a trial member! Very pleased.

Cons

The only issues I have are quirky little things like I wish callouts would disappear without having to manually close them. But that's pretty picky, I don't have very many issues with the software.

We initially licensed MBO 3 years ago when I suddenly became responsible for mapping sales territories for my company and needed to be able to include county-level details along with sales by customer, it worked marvelously and it enabled me to quickly adjust the maps. Great tool

Pros

Cons

Would like the ability to determine the best location for a Salesman to live and to be able to determine call routes

### "Great Product"

December 14, 2016

4.0

I currently work for a hospital and had needed software to track our new patients. After extensive research, I decided to give Map Business Online a try. I must say that it was fairly easy to upload my data and create my map. The customization was exactly what I had needed as well. From what I have seen out there, it really does create the best heat maps and graphics. I don't feel as though there are currently any other competitors out there that come close.

Pros

The quality of the graphics and maps are amazing. All the maps that I have created are very accurate.

Cons

It takes some messing around with all of the tools to understand how to customize your map properly. I wish there was an undo button as well.

Review Source

Thanks Kayla. You will find an Undo button for some functions at the top of the application - to the right of the Address Bar. We'll be adding more undo functions over time. Geoff

Routing, mapping, territories, profitable areas, target areas, ...you name it

Pros

Ease of use, mapping and routing capabilities, territorial map information. This software has it all. And when you need support, pick up the phone, they have always been available.

Cons

Printing. Capturing a selected detailed image and attempting to print an a large scale, such as a 4' x6' map is very difficult
